Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 The third is my favorite. The winners are: "Cheryl's mind turned like the vanes of a wind-powered turbine, chopping her sparrow-like thoughts into bloody pieces that fell onto a growing pile of forgotten memories." --Sue Fondrie of Oshkosh, Wisconsin "Napoleon's ship tossed and turned as the emperor, listening while his generals squabbled as they always did, splashed the tepid waters in his bathtub." --John Doble of New York "As his small boat scudded before a brisk breeze under a sapphire sky dappled with cerulean clouds with indigo bases, through cobalt seas that deepened to navy nearer the boat and faded to azure at the horizon, Ian was at a loss as to why he felt blue." --Mike Pedersen of North Berwick, Maine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Those are always fun... I used to work with Gail Cain, the (then) young lady who won the first (back in '83 I think it was, while I was serving a sentence as a banker in San Francisco ).

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Morgan ‘Bamboo’ Barnes, Star Pilot of the Galaxia (flagship of the Solar Brigade), accepted an hors d’oeuvre from the triangular-shaped platter offered to him from the Princess Qwillia—lavender-skinned she was and busty, with two of her four eyes what Barnes called ‘bedroom eyes’—and marveled at how on her planet, Chlamydia-5, these snacks were called ‘Hi-Dee-Hoes’ but on Earth they were simply called Ritz Crackers with Velveeta.
